To cook food with authentic Persian flavor, you'll need spice. We're always loathe to trek to numerous shops to gather spices for a recipe, so it's useful to find a set with everything we need in one place, especially of such high quality. This set includes a 1/2 cup jar of barberries, 1/4 cup jars of ground cardamom, sumac, turmeric, rose petals, and fenugreek leaves, and a 1 gram jar of Spanish select grade saffron (just a pinch is all you need!).

This set is just the companion you need to cook from one of our favorite books (and 2014 Piglet Tournament of Cookbooks winner!) -- The New Persian Kitchen.
